Engulfed in the darkness of Irian Jaya's Snow Mountains live the Yali - cannibals who call themselves "lords of the earth". Yet in terror and bondage they serve women-hating, child-despising gods. Missionary Stan Dale dared to enter their domain. "Lords of the earth" is the story of Dale, his wife, his companions, and thousands of Yali tribesmen-all swept together in a swirl of agony and bloodshed that climaxes in a dramatic, unexpected ending. Readers will find their perceptions of how God moves enlarged and inspired by this classic story.
